8. You can set the time after which this notification will be scheduled for the users. You can also set cancel events, which will reject the scheduled notifications on performing specific events.

9. After filling the details popup will auto close. Now it’s time to connect the event with our notification. Simple drag a line from event box and attached with push box. It will automatically connect, and now your first small journey is set. Whenever users will perform this event, they will get this push notification. If the user performs the cancel event which you defined for the notification, then the notification will be canceled for that user.
